Weekend Stay
My son (11) and I, along with my parents, stayed the weekend, as I was participating in a nearby running event. The space was perfect for us. It was clean and well kept with a perfect balance of rustic farmhouse feel and modern amenities. Although we were not there long enough to explore the local shops a short walk away, they looked fabulous and very inviting. The host was very available to answer questions, and all instructions relative to the stay were clear and accurate. Thank you Pat!

Beautiful home
The house and property is beautiful. There is plenty of space for everyone and is well stocked with dishes, cutlery, and bedding. The house is nicely situated where it is in walking distance to town which is very nice. We also discovered a path through the park across the street where you can get down to the williams middle branch river and we were able to walk up a bit with our dog. There is also free transportation in the town via bus called the moo-ver (lol) which is also convenient. House has no central a/c but had plenty of fans and cooled off nicely at nighttime.Owners are very nice and easy to communicate with. Would love to stay again.

Just as Promised
We were a group of four retired adults wanting to ski Okemo and found the property just as described. The location is perfect with Okemo just 15 minutes away and restaurants and necessity shopping close as well. The home is very well stocked with the essentials to make yourself right at home.

Spicy Skiing and Cozy Hangout Time
We took a long weekend in Chester to ski at Magic and hangout with family. The house offered nice spaces for adults and kids to hangout separately and eat all together. The rooms offered nice overnight privacy and space as well as a full "sleep over room" for the little kids.

Perfect house for a weekend of skiing
Great house for a group of friends to stay at for a ski weekend. The house is right off the main road with restaurants, bars, and shops walking distance. Pat and Cindy were very communicative and went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our stay. We would definitely stay here again!
